After months of planning, filming, editing and talking far too much about rum, I’m delighted to announce that RumShopBoy is now live on YouTube!
If you’ve enjoyed reading my rum reviews, hydrometer tests and rum articles here on RumShopBoy.com, you can now join me on YouTube for:
š„ Rum Reviews
š„ Rum Analysis
š„ Rum Fun
The channel launches with a range of videos including:
ā¢ What Is Rum? How Rum Is Made ā¢ 5 Rums Every Beginner Should Try ā¢ 5 MORE Rums Every Beginner Should Try ā¢ Why I Don’t Drink Spiced Rum ā¢ My discovery of Rum Aged 8 back in 1980
And there is plenty more to come, including budget rum recommendations, beginner guides, rum myths, distillery discussions and regular YouTube Shorts.
Whether you’re completely new to rum or already have a well-stocked rum shelf, I hope you’ll find something interesting.
I’d be hugely grateful if you would subscribe, leave a comment and help spread the word.
RumShopBoy | Honest Rum Reviews, Recommendations & Rum Knowledge
I'm Simon, the person behind RumShopBoy ā exploring the incredible world of Rum, Ron, Rhum and CachaƧa.
I've been writing about, tasting and collecting rum for many years, with a particular interest in the diversity of production styles, traditions and flavours found around the world.
RumShopBoy is all about honest opinions, independent reviews and helping people discover better rum. Whether you're completely new to rum or already have a well-stocked collection, I want to make the category easier to understand, explore and enjoy.
My content covers individual rum reviews, affordable and beginner-friendly recommendations, Rum Knowledge videos and explorations of rum-producing countries and styles from around the world.
Appleton was where my own rum journey really began, and Jamaican and Barbadian rum remain important reference points for me. Foursquare is another particular favourite, and I'm an advocate of Luca Gargano's proposed reclassification of rum as a useful way of understanding how rum is actually produced.
I hold WSET Level 1 and Level 2 Awards in Spirits, achieving Distinction at Level 2. I also hold WSET Level 1 and Level 2 Awards in Wine, again achieving Distinction at Level 2.
Away from rum, I'm a Liverpool supporter and season ticket holder, and a long-time Pet Shop Boys fan ā which provided some of the inspiration for the RumShopBoy name.
